E-House Rebuilding Hits Snag As Rights Plan Stalls
Portfolio Pulse from The Bamboo Works
E-House's restructuring efforts have stalled due to its inability to use its CRIC asset as collateral for a rights issue, necessary for raising funds. The company faces significant financial difficulties, with over 5 billion yuan in interest-bearing liabilities and upcoming loans and convertible notes. Its situation is exacerbated by the real estate market downturn, affecting its main revenue source from property developers. E-House had planned to raise funds through a rights issue and inject its assets into a joint venture with Alibaba, but the plan is now on hold.
